Stevenson’s army, December 15

Today is Bill of Rights Day: celebrate!

-NDAA should be passed today. No wonder.

UAE unhappy with US arms sale because of China restrictions.

– Deal in works to end holds on ambassadors.

– Democratic analyst has gloomy political survey.

2022 Hill calendar has Senate and House with many different recess days.

-CSIS has new analysis of defense budget.

– Dan Drezner says Iran sanctions have failed.  Conservative Max Boot says we should learn to live with a nuclear Iran.

– Mike Mazarr of Rand says US should stop trying to change regimes.

My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I plan to republish here. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request. Click “Join This Group” and follow the instructions to join. Once you have joined, you can adjust your email delivery preferences (if you want every email or a digest of the emails).
